Hello fellow Reefers! I am returning to the game after a 20 year hiatus. I had an 80 gallon custom cube with sump, deep sand bed, refugium/sump, metal halides. State of the art in 1993!!! Then we moved and I sold the whole thing to a friend. Fast forward and 20 years has gone by. HOW?????
I was strolling down Mississippi Ave about a month ago and my son says, "Dad! Look a fish store!" And there is the coolest little reef shop I've seen in a long while. Place is called Cuttlefish. Well, I felt like a man seeing a Delorean Time Machine. Things looked familiar but way different too. LED lights, Nano Cube systems, etc! Well, I walked outta that shop with a bad bad bite. I started looking at nanos and reading this forum that night.
Got a real good deal on a JBJ Nano Cube and stand from a local guy about 2 weeks ago and found a great local reefer named Scott selling rock, frags, and misc. equipment out of his basement! So cool!
And so now I'm back into it, much to my wife's chagrin and the delight of my 3 children (13, 11, and 9).
Since this is only my 5th post I'll post some pics next, after I am allowed to.
Kind Regards!
